I think it would be a huge mistake to backport glib. This package is
vital for most components of Ubuntu and Xubuntu, and every application
that depends on glib would have to be tested or rebuilt to check for
regressions.

As shown by "apt-cache rdepends libglib2.0-0 | wc -l", this means at
least 1994 packages to test...
